Painter Texts "Death To Muslims" To Customer Who Canceled Appointment

Where: Washington, D.C.

When: Monday, Dec. 7

Who: Rich Trevor Dickey, owner of Paint1ng (the spelling has also been reported as "Paint1ing"), and Aaditya Shah.

What: Shah had arranged for Paint1ng to paint his row house at 8 a.m. When the company called to say they couldn't make it until about 9 a.m., Shah canceled the appointment, saying he had to get a work meeting and couldn't wait around to give the painters a key. That's when Shah says he was sent menacing, Islamophobic texts. "Death to Muslims," read one text, above a picture of Shah taken from his Facebook Page. "Get out of my country bitch." Then, a man from the company told Shah over the phone that he wanted to see him dead in the street, Shah told DCist. Shah, who is not a Muslim, was born in the United States.

Reached for comment by DCist, Dickey, the owner of Paint1ng, was unrepentant, saying that what was sent to Shah "wasn't a threat" and was a "heat-of-the-moment thing." He added that "of course it was the wrong thing to say but it's just how I feel." Dickey also asked DCist not to publish anything about his texts to Shah, adding:

I don't think there's a story here unless you want to capitalize on the whole Muslim thing. I think if you do a story about this, we'll get business from the people who aren't fans of Muslims. There are a lot of people right now who don't like Muslims, and they'll probably be like, 'Hell yeah, let me give you some business.'

Washington police are investigating the incident as a potential felony threat.

Who: Rasheed Albeshari was praying with a group of fellow Muslims when Denise Slader, identified by police as an employee of the California Department of Corrections, approached them and started screaming.

What: "After praying, this lady approached us and started yelling at us that we're brainwashed for believing in Allah, 'Allah is evil' she said," Albeshari wrote in a Facebook post. "I started video taping her, I ,also, was hit by an umbrella before taking a shower of coffee right on my face."

Slader also allegedly hurled other insults at the group, including "the Quran is evil,” “your god is Satan,” and “Allah is Satan,” Albeshari told BuzzFeed News. Police responded to the incident and interviewed everyone involved. Although Slader wasn't arrested, police sent a report to the Alameda County District Attorney’s Office, Buzzfeed reported. After the DA's office reviews the report, Slader could potentially face charges of misdemeanor battery or a hate crime.

When: The head was discovered by a mosque member early Monday morning, Dec. 7.

Who: Unidentified suspect(s).

What: Surveillance video showed a red pickup driving by the mosque twice late Sunday night. On the second drive-by, a man can be seen throwing an object -- presumably the pig's head -- out the window. The Quran forbids the eating of pork and pork products. Police and the FBI are investigating the incident.

Nabil Khalil, the manager of the mosque, told NBC 10 Philadelphia that it's the second time the mosque has been targeted in recent weeks. Just a few days after the attacks in Paris, a man called the mosque and left a menacing voice mail. "I hope you people are happy about what you did in Paris," the man said. "I'd just like to state for the record that Allah is a piece of pork shit."

Muslim Women Harassed At Crowded Restaurant, Nobody Cares

Where: At Kerbey Lane Cafe in Austin, Texas

When: Sunday morning, Dec. 6

Who: Two American citizens: Leilah Abdennabi, a Palestinian-American born in Chicago, and Sirat Al-Nahi, an Iraqi-American born in Seattle

My friend and I just experienced Islamophobia in Austin. This is the first time this has happened to me in Austin."Leilah Abdennabi

What: Abdennabi, a student at the University of Texas, and her friend, Al-Nahi, were about to get a table at the restaurant when an older man pointed at Abdennabi and yelled that she "should just go back to Saudi Arabia where she came from.” Then, as Al-Nahi wrote in a Facebook post:

"...nobody said anything. I literally couldn’t believe he said that and I asked him to repeat what he had just said. Maybe I should have let it go, maybe I set myself up for this, but I couldn’t believe what he said and I guess I hoped someone would have the humanity to acknowledge it because their silence hurt just as much as his words. But nobody cared when he repeated it and they didn’t care when he added, “And the same goes for you. What? You have a gun in there? Just go ahead and shoot me.”

Restaurant staff tried to seat the man in a "pathetic attempt to deescalate the situation," Al-Nahi wrote. "They chose to seat the racist guy who just made a girl cry right in from [sic] them, rather than us. When we spoke to management, they basically said they were sorry it happened, but they can’t do anything. They couldn’t not seat him."

Facebook

Abdennabi and Al-Nahi then confronted the man again, who doubled down on his racist remarks. The pair decided to leave. According to Al-Nahi, "As we turn to leave, Leilah, in tears, says, 'Just so everyone knows we were told very racist things and this restaurant doesn’t feel the need to address it because who cares about us?' And somebody called out, 'Nobody.' and we left. Because it was true."

Kerbey Lane Cafe later reached out to the two women and apologized. The restaurant's CEO also issued a public apology, saying the establishment "is no place for hatred and I’m so very sorry about what happened."

He has since been released.

“I thought I was going to die,” he told CAIR. The New York City Police Department told The Huffington Post that it initially processed Kolvani's arrest as a normal assault, but that its hate crimes unit is now investigating the assault after Haque told the department that Kolvani had threatened to kill Muslims.

What: Sundus was riding in the back of the bus when a middle-aged white woman sat next to her and started berating her for being Muslim. "Among other things, I was told to 'go back to my country to get raped and killed,'" Sundus later wrote on Facebook.

The agency's spokesman told the CBC that its human rights department as well as its transit enforcement branch are investigating the incident.

Facebook

Sundus wrote in her Facebook post that these are "trying times" and "if you see someone being attacked, it is your moral responsibility to stop it. You don't need to go to war, but just say something, anything. It may just shut the attacker up -- and usually people are waiting for that one person to say something before others step in."

Days later, another customer, who had witnessed the incident, left Rashid a letter:

Hi, I was at the [redacted] pharmacy on Friday evening when that man started screaming some of the most sexist, racist, hateful words I’ve ever heard. In the moment I froze and immediately welled up with tears and sadness for you. You were so brave for responding to him and defending yourself so eloquently. I wanted to let you know how sorry I am that you had to experience such a traumatic event, and let you know that I’m thinking of you. I hope you never have to experience anything like that again in your life. This Thanksgiving season, I’m thankful for you, for the wonderful work you do, and for inspiring me to find strength during these times of unrest in our world."

Anti-Islam Group Posts Muslims' Names, Addresses To Facebook

Where: Irving, TexasWhen:Wednesday, Nov. 25 Who: David Wright III, who is part of an anti-Islam group called The Bureau of American-Islamic Relations, or BAIR, and who previously organized an armed protest of a local mosqueWhat: Wright published the names and addresses of about 60 Muslims and "Muslim sympathizers" toBAIR's Facebook page.

Muslim Fulbright Scholar Removed From Flight

Twitter/@_kameelahr

Where: Newark Liberty International Airport When: Tuesday, Nov. 24 Who: Kameelah Rasheed, a Stanford University graduate, Fulbright scholar and contributing editor at The New Inquiry. She is also a Muslim woman who wears a hijab.What: While on her way to Istanbul for a vacation, Rasheed was detained at the airport by customs agents who confiscated her passport and phone.

"Why are you flying?" the agents asked, Rasheed told Al-Jazeera. "Where are you going in Istanbul? How can you afford to go on holiday? How much was the ticket price?"

The agents also asked why she had booked a one-way ticket, even though Rasheed says she showed them her return flight details. Rasheed was eventually allowed to board her Lufthansa flight, but then was removed from the plane and interrogated by an FBI agent. She says she was the only visibly Muslim passenger, and the only one removed from the flight.

"I don't think there is a resurgence of Islamophobia after the Paris attacks. I think it never went away. It's becoming more legitimized. Right after 9/11, you could do it [commit hate crimes towards Muslims] for a couple of years and no one would blame you… And now after Paris, it's like, 'look at what they did, I can treat them how I want.' We didn't make any progress."Kameelah Rasheed, to Al Jazeera.

The humiliating ordeal lasted two-and-half hours, and Rasheed was eventually released. She announced on Twitter -- where her story had gained attention -- that she was going back home to Brooklyn. She is now calling on Lufthansa to refund the cost of her flight.

"I'm still very angry and hurt, but I have to temper that with not having expectations for being treated better," she told Al Jazeera. "I shouldn't expect any better. This is the militarised state that we have decided to live in. These are the consequences of me being Muslim and black and American -- everything at the moment is organized around me being checked. This is what it is."

This incident was at least the fourth time since the Paris attacks that people in the U.S. who appeared to be Muslim either have been removed from a flight or prevented from boarding.
